Spam

"Spam" includes:

Business promotion or personal GoFundMe accounts
Karma-farming from r/all
Youtube-farming (e.g.: youtube accounts of non-famous minors)
Other "farming" of personal blogs/sites or using subreddit for personal gain
Non-gymnastics posts (e.g.: yoga or bodyweight fitness)
Surveys/Marketing Research
AI generated content

Exception: OC from active users is welcome & encouraged! Otherwise, please message the mods for an exception.

Bigotry/Reddiquette

Bigotry is unwelcome here. That includes (but is not limited to) racism, sexism, or homophobia.

General reddiquette is also expected. Disagreements between users are fine! But don't be a jerk about it and start cursing out other users. And absolutely no harassment via unsolicited PMs or following users to other subreddits.

"Am I Too Old...?" Posts

Adult Gymnastics is fantastic! But posts asking if you're too old to begin the sport have been covered ad nauseam and do not benefit to the community. They have the exact same answer every time:

"No, you're not too old to start, but don't expect to be chosen to go to the Olympics over people who have been training for 2+ decades." Likewise, no one can tell you how long it will take you to learn a back tuck; see Rule 4.

Questions about finding a local gym that offers adult gym are permitted.

Armchair Coaching

This includes both asking for coaching advice as an athlete as well as advice on how to coach. This sport is very dangerous; we have no way of ensuring that advice given is safe.

Too many injuries happen inside the gym while being correctly coached. Taking it outside of the gym can end horribly. "Try it into a pool!" sounds like great advice for someone asking to learn a flip... until they crack their head on the edge.

Medical Advice

This is not a medical forum or doctor's office. We cannot diagnose or suggest treatment for any medical injury you may or may not have sustained from the sport. Similarly, we cannot give suggestions on how to train following an injury or how to train around an injury.

Low Effort/Mod Discretion

Low effort posts will be removed at mod discretion. This includes a range of posts from reposts, to meme posts, to other posts with low/minimal substance. Additionally, accounts created with the sole point of being rude or agumentative will be banned (includes overlap with above rules).
